August Third Thursday

Basic Nutrition for General Practice Veterinarian Clinics

Presented by MudBay Director of Dog and Cat Health and Nutrition, Katy Patterson-Miller, DVM, CVFT

In a 2018 survey, 68-percent of pet owners said they wanted their veterinarians to recommend routine or maintenance diets for their pets. In this lecture presented by MudBay Director of Dog and Cat Health and Nutrition, Katy Patterson-Miller, DVM, CVFT, learn how to make effective nutritional recommendations for patients by understanding the essentials of different pet food forms and formulas, as well as what WSAVA guidelines tell veterinary professionals about a pet food. Then we will explore the science behind some basic nutritional recommendations that may improve the overall health of the pets you see. Finally, we’ll learn about resources and strategies that can help you provide better nutritional counseling to pet owners.

We invite all doctors, technicians, managers and support staff in the veterinary community to attend our Third Thursday Rounds. Attendees will receive one unit of RACE CE (approval pending) credit for virtual lectures.
